Player Piano System Installation

Select from the leading manufacturers of player piano systems which integrate full orchestration sound, apps for simple remote control, and the ability to record and playback performances.

Custom Action

If you prefer a 'light' or 'heavy' touch, a 'bright' or 'mellow' sound, modern manufacturer recommended parts or parts built to historic specifications, we will create the action you prefer.

Humidity Control

Maintaining proper humidity is critical to the well-being of your fine instrument. Protect it with the industry leading Dampp-Chaser Piano Life Saver which monitors the piano’s humidity levels and maintains an ideal 42% relative humidity.

Stains & Finishes

The look of a piano is one of it’s most important attributes. Once stripped to the original unfinished wood veneer, the choices are limitless. Select from a wide variety of stain colors, or we can mix a custom color. Once stained, layers of lacquer are slowly applied to create your desired finish, from open-pore to closed-pore. Finally, the lacquer is painstakingly hand-rubbed to create a satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss polish.
